Cyber Crime Investigator's Field Guide, Second Edition

Description: Many excellent hardware and software products exist to protect our data communications sytems, but security threats dictate that they must be further enhanced.

Organizations demand experts with both investigative talents and a technical knowledge of how cyberspace really works. Cyber Crime Investigator's Field Guide, Second Edition provides the investigative framework that needs to be followed, along with information about how cyberspace works and the tools that reveal the who, what, when, where, why, and how in the investigation of cyber crime. This volume offers a valuable Q&A by subject area, an extensive overview of recommended reference materials, and a detailed case study. Appendices highlight attack signatures, UNIX/Linux commands, Cisco PIX commands, port numbers targeted by trojan horses, and more.

Product Description
"Cybercrime and cyber-terrorism represent a serious challenge to society as a whole." - Hans Christian Krüger, Deputy Secretary General of the Council of Europe
Crime has been with us as long as laws have existed, and modern technology has given us a new type of criminal activity: cybercrime. Computer and network related crime is a problem that spans the globe, and unites those in two disparate fields: law enforcement and information technology.

This book will help both IT pros and law enforcement specialists understand both their own roles and those of the other, and show why that understanding and an organized, cooperative effort is necessary to win the fight against this new type of crime.

62% of US companies reported computer-related security breaches resulting in damages of $124 million dollars. This data is an indication of the massive need for Cybercrime training within the IT and law enforcement communities.
The only book that covers Cybercrime from forensic investigation through prosecution.
Cybercrime is one of the battlefields in the war against terror.

Download Description
This book is a bridge between two distinct cultures; that of IT professionals responsible for building systems that prevent cybercrime, and law enforcement officials responsible for investigating and prosecuting those crimes. It introduces IT professionals to the highly structured world of law enforcement, where rules of evidence must be followed closely and crime scenes must not be contaminated. It provides law enforcement officers with an understanding of the technical aspects of cybercrime and of how technology can be used to help solve crimes that have been committed. --This text refers to the Digital edition.

Description
This is an advanced cookbook and reference guide for digital forensic practitioners. File System Forensic Analysis focuses on the file system and disk. The file system of a computer is where most files are stored and where most evidence is found; it also the most technically challenging part of forensic analysis. This book offers an overview and detailed knowledge of the file system and disc layout. The overview will allow an investigator to more easily find evidence, recover deleted data, and validate his tools. The cookbook section will show how to use the many open source tools for analysis, many of which Brian Carrier has developed himself.

Most digital evidence is stored within the computer’s file system,
but understanding how file systems work is one of the most technically
challenging concepts for a digital investigator because there exists
little documentation. Now, security expert Brian Carrier has written
the definitive reference for everyone who wants to understand and be
able to testify about how file system analysis is performed.

Carrier
begins with an overview of investigation and computer foundations and
then gives an authoritative, comprehensive, and illustrated overview of
contemporary volume and file systems: Crucial information for
discovering hidden evidence, recovering deleted data, and validating
your tools. Along the way, he describes data structures, analyzes
example disk images, provides advanced investigation scenarios, and
uses today’s most valuable open source file system analysis
toolsâ€â€including tools he personally developed.

When
it comes to file system analysis, no other book offers this much detail
or expertise. Whether you’re a digital forensics specialist, incident
response team member, law enforcement officer, corporate security
specialist, or auditor, this book will become an indispensable resource
for forensic investigations, no matter what analysis tools you use.
